Mayor Hewitt sent letter of regret,
saying he congratulated them upon the
great change which had taken place in
the feelings of the North and the South
towards each other since his entrance
into public life twelve years ago. He
thought the era of bad feeling had
passed forever, and the time had now
arrived when any attempt to revive
sectional differences was looked upon
as contemplate or ridiculous. Mr..
Hewitt reviewed the progress OF New
England with free labor, and the lack
of enterprise in the South with slave
labor. He called attention TO the
growth of southern manufactures, and
said he had predicted their develop

of "The Country of Washington-Our
